Yesterday, "SUMEC TOUCH WORLD", a global equipment trading service platform, celebrated its fifth anniversary. The platform grandly held a series of online live broadcast activities, offering 10,000 coupons worth tens of millions of subsidies, gifts in kind, as well as other popular equipment direct sales of Kornit Digital, Buhler, Kenny, and Lisec, to give back to users and help domestic manufacturing enterprises achieve industrial upgrading.
Focus: "SUMEC TOUCH WORLD", relying on its strong supply chain service capabilities of mechanical and electrical product import and export, provides a four-in-one equipment procurement business solution for "resource supply, business consulting, financial support, and logistics services" for brick-and-mortar enterprises.”
【Photovoltaic Power】Tencent Venture enters perovskite solar cell industry
Recently, Guangxi Tencent Venture Capital Co., Ltd. completed the B-round investment in Kunshan GCL Optoelectronic Materials Co., Ltd. GCL focuses on the research and development as well as the production of perovskite solar modules, and is building the world's first 100MW perovskite solar cell production line. The R&D team has the core technology of perovskite solar cells. Previously, CATL said that the company's perovskite photovoltaic cell research is progressing smoothly, and a pilot test line is being built.
Focus: "Compared with the current mainstream crystalline silicon cell technology, perovskite cell technology has a higher upper limit of conversion efficiency and lower cost. It is considered to be the next generation of photovoltaic technology with more than 15 domestic companies currently deploying perovskite technology.”
【New Materials】New materials are used for the first time in the C919 large aircraft, and the demand for third-generation aluminum-lithium alloys, carbon fiber, etc. has increased
For the first time, most of the C919 front fuselage adopts the third-generation aluminum-lithium alloy material, which can further effectively reduce weight and improve rigidity. The manufacturer, AVIC Hongdu, has introduced the world's second skin mirror milling equipment for this purpose, and has successively conquered key technologies such as shot peening of aluminum-lithium alloy skins, roll-bending and manufacturing of aluminum-lithium alloy profiles, and skin mirror milling processing; in addition, the amount of carbon fiber composite materials on C919 reached 11.5%, and the amount of titanium alloy reached 9.3%, which is the first time in our country's civil aircraft.
Focus: "The first successful test flight of the domestic large aircraft C919 was recently carried out. The accelerated commercialization process means that China's civil aircraft technology has achieved a cluster breakthrough, and the civil aviation industry chain of new materials, as well as aviation sheet metal parts manufacturing and ground equipment and assembly, is expected to embrace new developments.”
【Semiconductor】Yangtze Memory has delivered 192-layer 3D NAND samples, and mass production is expected by the end of the year
Yangtze Memory has recently delivered 192-layer samples, and giants such as Samsung Electronics, Micron, and SK Hynix have launched products with more than 200 layers. With the popularization of 5G, AI, cloud computing, Internet of Things and other technologies, the storage market demand has greatly increased, and high-density 3D NAND with large storage and low power consumption have become the mainstream direction for future developments. It is estimated that by 2026, the market size of NAND flash memory will exceed 300 billion yuan.
Focus: "Our country is the second largest NAND market in the world, but the self-production rate is low. With the support of policies and large fundings, NAND technology has developed rapidly. At present, GigaDevice, Dosilicon, Ingenic Semiconductor, etc. have all made arrangements.”
【Foreign Trade】 Xiamen Customs has introduced 16 measures to promote the stability and quality of foreign trade
Recently, Xiamen Customs stated that it will further promote the "advance declaration", "two-step declaration" and "two-stage access" to improve the efficiency of customs clearance at the port of imported goods, continue to promote the special action of cross-border trade facilitation, and realize that the overall customs clearance time will only decrease but not increase. At the same time, Xiamen Customs will further increase the promotion of RCEP and other origin policies, and comprehensively apply tax reduction and exemption, policy-based tax rebates, and import value-added tax installments policies to support the construction of major projects in the customs area and the import and export of key commodities.
Focus: "The customs will also strengthen the cultivation of AEO certification for leading enterprises in the customs area, track and evaluate the implementation of the convenience measures for AEO enterprises; at the same time, it will promote "Internet + audit", recognize the self-examination results of enterprises to a certain extent, and optimize the audit process.”
